Lonnie Johnson - When You Always By Yourself (1967) lyrics

Life is so heartbreakin’, when you always by yourself.

Life is so heartbreakin’, when you always by yourself.

When you find someone you care for, they always belong to somebody else.

Love is like a long, a long ol’ road has no end.

Love is like a long ol’ road, baby that has no end.

But when you got love on your side, you always got a right-hand friend.

Without love you’re lost, just like a ship at sea.

Without love you’re lost, just like a ship at sea.

An’ it’s no show to fight for, nothin’ but the skies you see.

Some people don’t know, don’t know what it’s all about.

Some people don’t know, don’t know what love is all about.

But when you fall in love real good, baby there’s no way out.

If you think you can make it without a woman, you better throw it out you mind.

If you think you can make it without a woman, you better throw it out you mind.

‘Cause they’re here to stay, until the end of time.
